Definitions
- This invention relates to a torsional vibration damper for use, for example, in damping the torsional vibrations of an engine crankshaft.
- a torsional vibration damper comprising: an annular driven member, an annular inertia member, co-axial with said driven member and capable of limited rotational movement relative thereto, means fixed to said driven and inertia member means for forming at least one set of variable volume chambers arranged so that relative movement of said driven and inertia members in a first direction decreases the volume of one of said chambers and increases the volume of the other, relative movement in the opposite direction causing a reverse variation in the volume of said chambers, means for forming at least one annular spring carried by one of said members, and means for connecting said variable volume chambers to at least one side of said annular spring, said damper being supplied with a source of fluid in said chambers whereby relative rotational movement of said members pressurizes the one side of said annular spring means to cause it to flex in a circumferential direction.
- a torsional vibration damper comprising: an annular driven member, an annular inertia member, co-axial with said driven member and capable of limited rotational movement relative thereto, means fixed to said driven and inertia members for forming at least one set of variable volume chambers arranged so that relative movement of said driven and inertia members in a first direction decreases the volume of one of said chambers and increases the volume of the other, relative movement in the opposite direction causing a reverse variation in the volume of said chambers, means for forming at least one annular spring carried by one of said members, and means for connecting said variable volume chambers to at least one side of said spring means, said damper being supplied with a source of fluid in said chambers whereby relative rotational movement of said members pressurizes the one side of said spring means to cause it to flex, characterised in that at least one of said chambers is provided with inlet and outlet valves so as to enable it to pump fluid from the source to the pressurized side of the spring.
- the spring means comprises two annular springs connected to respective pumping chamber sets for flexing the springs alternately in a circumferential direction during said relative movement of said driven and inertia members in opposite directions, the springs also being connected to respective non-pumping chamber sets so that pressurization of said chambers caused by return movement of the springs resists said relative movement.
- the two pumping chamber sets are preferably provided at diametrically opposed locations and a plurality of second chamber sets are provided between said first sets.
- all the chambers sets are equiangularly spaced relative to each other.
- a pair of diametrically opposed non-pumping chamber sets is disposed symmetrically between said two pumping chamber sets and a pair of damping fluid outlet orifices is provided in the connections between each of said pair of pumping chamber sets and the respective springs.
- said means fixed to said driven and inertia members for forming said variable volume chamber sets comprise an axially segmented cylinder with alternate segments forming part of the driven member and intermediate segments forming part of the inertia member.
- connections between the spring means and the non-pumping chambers has a sufficiently large flow cross-section to avoid turbulence.
- Fig. 1 is a side view with side plate removed of one embodiment of torsional vibration damper in accordance with the present invention and the inset shows the indicated part of the drawing to an enlarged scale;
- Figs. 2 to 8 are sections on the lines indicated of Fig. 1;
- Fig. 9 is a diagrammatic representation of the fluid flow system of the torsional vibration damper shown in Figs. 1 to 8;
- Fig. 10 is a graph showing the variation with time of the pressure in the cylinder al shown in Fig. 9;
- Fig. 11 is a graph showing the variation with time of the pressure in the cylinder bl shown in Fig. 9, and
- Fig. 12 is a diagrammatic representation of the fluid flow system of a modified torsional vibration damper.
- the exemplified torsional vibration damper comprises a rotary body 1 of flat cylindrical shape having an inner hub member 2 and an outer inertia member 3.
- the members 2, 3 normally rotate in unison, for example with the end of an engine crankshaft, but torsional vibrations in the shaft tend to produce limited relative rotation of the hub member 2 with respect to the outer inertia member 3.
- the damping effect is achieved by damping such relative rotation.
- the vibration damper is intended for damping the torsional vibrations of an engine crankshaft using engine oil as a damping fluid. It will be appreciated, however, that alternative applications involving other damping fluids are possible.
- the hub member 2 has a bore 4 for receiving the end of a crankshaft (not shown but extending from the right in the sectional views of Figs. 2 to 8) to which an inwardly projecting flange 5 of the hub member 2 is fixed by bolts (not shown) inserted through equiangularly spaced holes 6 (see particularly Figs. 1 and 2).
- a cover (not shown) located at the left-hand end 7 of the bore 4 defines with the crankshaft end disposed on line 8 a central chamber 9 for holding engine oil supplied under pressure through the centre of the crankshaft.
- the hub member 2 is penetrated by two opposed pairs of radial flow passages 10, 11 and 12, 13 which interconnect the oil reservoir in the central chamber 9 with a damping pressure circuit to be described.
- An outer part of the hub member 2 is provided by alternate segments 14 of an axially segmented cylinder with intervening alternate segments 15 forming an inner part of the outer inertia member 3.
- the segments 14 are connected to the main body of the hub member 2 by screws 16 or pins 17 and the segments 15 are integral with the main body of the outer member 3.
- Side plates 18, 19 are fixed to opposite sides of the outer member 3 by suitable fasteners as shown.
- the side plates 18, 19 overlap the hub member 2 and oil seals 20, 21 are provided at the contact surfaces.
- the cylinder segments 14, 15 are separated by axial gaps defining variable-volume chambers 22 and 23 to the left and right respectively of each segment 14 as seen in Fig. 1.
- the outer member 3 is provided on opposite sides thereof with annular recesses forming spring chambers 24, 25 disposed in side-by- side relationship in the sectional views of Figs. 2 to 7.
- Each chamber 24, 25 contains a respective spring 26, 27 which is preferably a non- laminated hollow cylindrical spring.
- Lateral seals 26a, b and 27a, b are provided for each spring 26, 27. That part of each spring chamber
- the diametrically opposed pair of chamber sets 22, 23 defined by segments 14 traversed by oil supply passages 10, 11 and 12, 13 constitute pumping chambers.
- the pumping chambers 22, 23 form part of a pumping mechanism in which each segment 14 can be regarded as a double-acting piston sweeping an arcuate cylinder defined by the flanking segments 15 and the part of the outer member 3 between the segments 15.
- the variable volume chambers 22, 23 form part of the cylinder at opposite ends of the piston defined by the segment 14. Damping oil flows into the chambers 22, 23 via the inlet passages 10, 11, and 12, 13, and their respective inlet valves 10a, 11a, and 12a, 13a. As shown for one of the pumping chamber sets in the inset to Fig.
- outlet passages 28, 29 from the pumping chambers 22, 23 extend radially through the outer member 3 to connect with the respective spring chambers 25, 24.
- the passages 28, 29 include respective non ⁇ return ball valves 28a, 29a which are spring-loaded to prevent return flow from the spring chambers. It will be appreciated that the other pumping chamber set is similarly connected to the spring chambers 24,
- variable volume chambers 22, 23 of the other (non-pumping) chamber sets are connected to the respective spring chambers 25, 24 by radial slots 30, 31 (inset to Fig. 1 and Figs. 5 and 6) of sufficiently large cross-section area to avoid turbulent flow.
- the chambers 23 will increase in volume while the chambers 22 decrease in volume. Damping oil is thus drawn into the pumping chambers 23 and expelled from the pumping chambers 22 through the outlet passages, e.g. 28, into the spring chamber 25 so as to flex the spring 27 circumferentially.
- the return force of the spring 27 transmits fluid pressure through the slots 30 to the variable volume chambers 22 of the second chamber set so as to resist the rotational movement of the hub 2 in the anti-clockwise direction.
- the effect of torsional vibration is thus to pressurise the flow system upstream of the two pairs of outlet valves, e.g. 28a, 29a.
- Diametrically opposed pairs of slots 30, 31 arranged symmetrically with respect to the pumping segments 14 are connected with outlet orifices O in the adjacent side plates 18, 19 so as to permit a restricted flow of damping oil through the pressurised system and enabling the oil in the system to be cooled by make-up oil.
- Damping is achieved by the flow of fluid through the outlet orifices O and also by the flow of fluid into the spring chambers 24,
- Fig. 9 The mode of operation is shown schematically in Fig. 9 in which piston A represents the segments 14 connected to the spring chambers 24, 25 by the slots 31, 30 also connected to the orifices O and piston B represents the segments 14 associated with the pumping chambers 22, 23.
- M represents the mass of the rotor inertia member 3.
- Fig. 10 is a graph showing the pressure in the cylinder al shown in Fig. 9 and representing the pressure in the pressurised side of the damping system. It will be noted that the pressure increases from start-up to an elevated mean pressure.
- Fig. 11 shows the pressure in the cylinder bl of Fig. 9 as a series of peaks (the pressure stroke of the piston) and troughs (the induction stroke of the piston) with the shaded areas showing the extent to which the pressure in the cylinder bl is below the supply pressure shown by the straight line parallel to the X axis.
- Fig. 12 is a diagrammatic representation of the fluid flow system of a modified torsional vibration damper with a single spring S and inner and outer spring chambers 32, 33. Parts corresponding to those shown in Fig. 9 are identified by the same reference numerals and letters and are not further described.
- the spring chambers 32, 33 are connected to opposite sides of piston A (representing segments 14) by slots 34, 35 respectively.
- outlet orifices 0 are connected to inlet and outlet passages of cylinders bl and include appropriately dimensioned chokes c.
- the orifices 0 may be similarly connected in the Fig. 9 embodiment as indicated by the dotted lines.
